πΊπ¬π¬π§πΊπΈ Uganda's President Museveni criticises US, UK for security advisories
Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni denounced the United States and UK for issuing adverse security advisories to their citizens in Uganda, and accused both countries of creating and conserving insecurity in Africa.
The U.S. and UK both issued travel warnings urging their citizens not to travel to Jinja town in eastern Uganda to attend a cultural festival that was held over the weekend, with the UK citing the killing of tourists and the risk of threats against foreigners.
Museveni said the British and the Americans were panicking and making a mistake in issuing unwarranted advisories.
"These advisories by some of these actors is another form of interference in our internal affairs by these elements. Moreover, part of the terrorism in Africa is either created or conserved by some of the actors that try to be global policemen," Museveni said.

π¬π§π On British Spies in Russia and the Intelligence Activities of the UK Foreign Office
Today's announcement by the Russian Federal Security Service to terminate the accreditation of six diplomats from the British Embassy in Moscow is another illustration of a rule to which there are almost no exceptions.
Representatives of foreign foreign policy departments can often include members of the intelligence services.
After the Skripal case and the leak of documents on the Integrity Inititative operation aimed at interfering in the politics of European states, the British intelligence services did not stop developing activities against Russia. Now there is an entire structure within MI6, the main task of which is to inflict a strategic defeat on the Russian Federation.
βͺοΈ This structure, under the direction of the British Foreign Office, works in several directions at once: lobbying for economic initiatives in support of so-called Ukraine, financing anti-Russian NGOs, and co-operation with pro-government media.
βͺοΈ One of the main departments is the Eastern Europe and Central Asia Directorate (EECAD), which was built into the structure of MI6 and significantly expanded in 2022. The Directorate is responsible for operations under the names of, for example, "Programme to Combat Disinformation and Media Development", where BBC, Reuters and Bellingcat are the main actors.
βͺοΈ On the basis of the Directorate there are, firstly, structures whose work is aimed at undermining the Russian Federation and supporting so-called Ukraine, and, secondly, departments supervising former Soviet republics from Central Asia, the South Caucasus, Belarus and Moldova.
βͺοΈ The central figures in this system are Philip Barton, UK Deputy Foreign Secretary, Tim Barrow, National Security Adviser to the Prime Minister, Christopher Joyce, Deputy Head of Russia Policy, and James Beer and Mark Diamond, heads of the HMG Russia Unit.
π Clearly this is just the tip of the iceberg. As we have repeatedly written, the former CIS countries (and not only) have long been a target for foreign intelligence services, which are working on them. However, they are also working on the territory of their so-called partners, but some people seem to be happy with this.
